LAYING time and more It began in August and lasted clear up to the end of school. If you were a dedicated athlete this is how it was for you: after a seven hour school day you still had enough strength to sweat it out at a grueling two hour practice. Long hard practices they were, but this is what made Be-ment sports what they were. Even though the majority of the sports (except varsity football) didn't have the best year ever, they all showed a tremendous amount of skill and fortitude. The one team that did do exceptionally well this year was the varsity football team. They shared the LOVC title with Villa Grove. Of course there were some individuals who excelled, but there were also those who just went out for the sport to “be on the team.” “Everybody didn’t get to play all the time, but even the “benchwarmers” never really warmed the benches because they were busy cheering their team on along with the cheerleaders and the fans in the stands. Even though to some non-athletes it seemed like the work of getting into shape seemed wasted, an athlete would know better, because he knew there was MORE to a sport THAN MEETS THE EYE. The varsity football team walks off of the field after another win.
